Kontron PC/104-Plus Microspace MSM-eO single board computer

The PC/104-Plus single board computer Microspace MSM-eO offers OEMs powerful embedded graphics.

It is based on the accelerated processing units of the AMD Embedded G-series which, along with a 64-bit CPU, also integrates a programmable graphics unit and a DDR3 memory controller.

Using the device and PC/104 portfolio of expansion boards, OEMs can implement small form factor applications.

The board integrates the single-core AMD T44R processor with 1.2 GHz together with an AMD Radeon HD6250 graphics unit. It supports the latest 3D graphics libraries such as OpenGL 3.2 and DirectX11.

It is also suitable as an upgrade for existing PC/104-Plus designs that need more graphics performance with low power consumption. Additionally, the integrated unified video encoder takes the load off the processor when displaying high-resolution videos (1080i/p) making the device suitable for compact multimedia applications, such as mobile infotainment systems, vending machines and mobile battery-operated systems.

With the support of DirectCompute and OpenCL 1.1, OEMs can also implement GPGPU applications in the low-power segment, using the computing power of the graphics unit for parallel data processing.
